This was just added on http://www.leftseat.com/medcat1.htm. This website (as far as I can tell) is the best source of information on FAA allowed / refused conditions and meds.
"Attention Deficit (ADD) - Ritalin (Methylphenidate Hydrochloride) and Adderall (Dextroamphetamine Sulfate) are usually not approved by the FAA. Under rare circumstances, individuals using Ritalin have been approved with restrictions. Approval is more likely for adults due to the difficulty in accurately evaluating ADD in young people and typically requires time off medication prior to flight."
